Roll for Initiative

i will attack this day with the loving ferocity of
a drunken tiger or a dungeon dragon
GRRAAAAAAAHHHRR!!
so back the fuck up, comrades
& get thee behind me
because here
we
go!
sliding down the outside
as we ride the persian red railway
on the way to shangri-la
TRA LA LA LA LA!!

let’s set the day a’fire
as we aim to end up
dancing on the tables of the night café
before we completely
lose our
minds

i have come to howl at the wounded city
ARRRRRROOOOOOO!!
to sweep, perchance to clean off the dust
& shake off the ghosts
to bounce back to the moon & beyond
& to that end
i will glitterglue my words on
the walls of the red labyrinth
& sprinkle them with elephantine abandon
whether we are ready or not
we are here
to
go!
